You can join the service at:
Bishop Kevin is joined digitally by the Rev Deborah Davison, Rector of Holy Trinity & St Barnabas, Paisley and the Church of the Good Shepherd, Hillington; the Rev Reuben Preston, Rector of St John’s, Johnstone and St Margaret’s, Renfrew; and the Rev Wilhelmina Nesbitt, Rector of St John’s, Greenock; who are the readers. The prayer for Spiritual Communion is led by Nicolette Wise from St Margaret’s, New Galloway.
In addition to the online resources, there is a telephone service to allow those who do not have internet access to listen to the service of worship by telephone. The facility is free of charge for anyone calling by landline or mobile phone from within the UK. It will be helpful if those who have online access to worship continue to use that method rather than using the telephone line, to avoid unnecessary additional cost incurred by the GSO, and we would also appreciate help in reaching non-internet users who are unable to see this information.
Anyone who would like full details of how to access the telephone line, in order to share them with someone who needs this service should email AidanS@scotland.anglican.org.
The broadcast will be available for all to access on YouTube and Facebook. Subtitles are available on both platforms, if selected by the user. Look for the CC icon at the bottom of the display screen on YouTube; on facebook, go to Settings, then Video, then select Always Show Captions.
We encourage people to distribute the video/audio recordings and the Liturgy widely within their own personal networks. In households with no internet or playback capacity at all, if people are simply given the opportunity to read the words of the Liturgy to themselves close to the appointed time, they will be praising God along with others in the Church.
